    The small room is not necessarily a drawback but rather a practical consideration given the purpose of this stay. It's adequate for a one-night stay before departing KL via Sentral; however, for those planning multiple nights or seeking a long-term base for exploring KL, I would recommend looking elsewhere as this hotel may not meet such needs.

    This hotel boasts an ideal location for those who wish to reach KL Sentral in just a few minutes on foot. It is designed primarily to accommodate travelers who need to get to the airport swiftly by staying close to KL Sentral and taking the KLIA Ekspres shortly thereafter.

    No CNA on TV, other than that nothing.

    You cannot get closer to KL Sentral, it is literally a stones throw away, ultra handy for shops and transport. The staff are first class, good natured and helpful. Highly recommended.

    The room is very small. We woke up to loud announcements at the adjacent station. One female receptionist is very unfriendly. The hotel was hard to find when we arrived late at night and the shopping centres between the central train station and metro station were closed.

    This proved to be a good place to stay extremely close to the city's public transport network. The hotel is right outside a monorail station - you can even hear the announcements from your bed! The majority of the staff are extremely friendly and service minded. It must be one of the cleanest budget hotels I have experienced. Very good value for money.

    Difficult to find parking place if you are driving (the places a little bit crowded). I park my car in the underground car park of another hotel behind (need to pay). The room is not spacious but is comfortable to stay.

    Very standard hotel with all the basic services provided. The location is very strategic with KL sentral just a walking distance and lots of restaurant and convenient stores around the hotel. It is a good location if you planning to take public transport to go around the KL City.

    The room was a bit musty smelling. Sometimes we could smell cigarette smoke but we don’t know where it came from as it is non smoking. We were charged more than the rate quoted, even taken into account the tourist tax but were too tired to question.

    It was very conveniently located next to KL Sentral train station and express train to the airport. The laundromat is just around the corner and there were a lot of food choices.

    My room was right next to the monorail station hence i could hear the noise from the station. Breakfast location was accessible to many walk in guests, with the outside seating being on the street. Minimal breakfast choices - possibly due to budget rate for the hotel.

    Clean and cosy room with all amenities a budget traveller needs. I enjoyed the hot showers, coffee facilities in the room and well maintained air conditioning. The bed was comfortable and large with clean beddings. Staff were very friendly and responded to my questions and requests for direction.

    The Room were very small and cramped. During the first stay we took a room with the window and it was noisy and could hardly sleep. During the next stay took a room without window, at least it was quiet and could sleep.

    The location was excellent near the KL Sentral and the staff were very helpful and friendly. We could leave our luggage 3-days before check-in, and on the day of check-in, they gave us early check-in. There were no shortage of restaurants near the hotel.

    Our room was kind of small for a triple sharing. Air-conditioner really need servicing. We can only feel the coolness after 1am in the morning. No chair in the room since it is a small room. You need to request hair dryer at the counter if you need one.

    The one best thing we like about was the location. Very strategically located with easy access to the lift and escalator to Nu Sentral and LRT monorail. Also there's a 7-Eleven nearby. The staff were friendly and helpful. Check-in was fast. The room is clean and nice. You can get water refills at the 5th floor. There's a nice resting place, as well as a mini gym at 5th floor.

    No natural light in the room, as there is no window - this was not clear from the info available when booking the room. Not good sound insulation, I could clearly hear the cleaning staff speaking quite loud in the corridors

    Perfect location right in front of KL Sentral. Comfortable bed, clean room and bathroom, nice rooftop terrace.
